Woodbury and Bethlehem, Connecticut

Welcome to my web site.  My name is Duncan McDougall and I am a lifelong resident of Woodbury.  I’ve created this web site in order to showcase, in photos as often as possible, the differences between how the residents of this town care for their properties, as well as the town’s common spaces, and how our elected officials too often neglect the property of the town, to its detriment.

For the time being, I’ve divided the site into two pages: Caring People and Indifferent Government.

Now, not everyone in town takes the time and effort to maintain their property as my photos show, but most residents care enough about their properties and their town to make a best effort to show that they CARE.  On the other hand, see the page entitled Indifferent Government.  Here, I’ve documented countless examples of how our local government cannot be bothered to minimally maintain the property that they have been elected and charged to protect!

Take some time to look at both pages, and the photos within.  Then, draw your own conclusions as to how to grade our current administration.  A picture is worth at least a thousand words.

For my part, if our town government’s elected officials bothered to put half as much effort into making the town’s public facilities as nice as how we residents treat our own properties, I probably wouldn’t need to have a web site with a page labeled Indifferent Government!  Think about that…  Remember, election day is next week.  Don’t take my word for it; my photos are all the evidence I need on whom to vote for on election day.

Take a look and then leave a comment on how YOU think our current leaders are doing compared to just us lowly residents and taxpayers. 

Thanks,

Duncan
